Cinemania Earthlings Screening
Fri, 2008-10-10 12:00
"This is the single most powerful and informative movie about society's treatment of animals. A must see for anyone who cares enough to know" earth.ling (urth ling), n. 1. An inhabitant of earth. Due to the response after the special screening on Friday 3 October, the Labia Theatre has agreed to exhibit EARTHLINGS for an extended period at their Kloof Street Theatre in the Lifestyle building (Cape Town, ZA), from Fri 10th October to Thu 16th October (12 noon & 4pm daily). EARTHLINGS is a feature length documentary about humanity's absolute dependence on animals (for pets, food, clothing, entertainment, and scientific research) but also illustrates our complete disrespect for these so-called "non-human providers." The film is narrated by Academy Award nominee JOAQUIN PHOENIX (Gladiator / Walk The Line) and features music by the critically acclaimed platinum artist MOBY. With an in-depth study into pet stores, puppy mills and animals shelters, as well as factory farms, the leather and fur trades, sports and entertainment industries, and finally the medical and scientific profession, EARTHLINGS uses hidden cameras and never before seen footage to chronicle the day-to-day practices of some of the largest industries in the world, all of which rely entirely on animals for profit. Powerful, informative and thought-provoking, EARTHLINGS is by far the most comprehensive documentary ever produced on the correlation between nature, animals, and human economic interests. There are many worthy animal rights films available, but this one transcends the setting. If you believe in TRUTH and all of its forms, you owe it to yourself to see Earthlings. www.iSawEarthlings.com Proceeds from this screening of EARTHLINGS will go to DARG (Domestic Animal Rescue Group) Please visit their website and donate generously to this hard working, noble, under-funded group. Other groups worth supporting : South African Mass Animal Sterilization Trust The Emma Animal Rescue Society People’s Dispensary For Sick Animals Domestic Animal Rescue Group Speaking, Protecting & Caring for Animals Animal Anti-Cruelty League Beauty Without Cruelty SA Animal Rescue Organization
